Rado movement identification by reference number for counterfeit control
Share
RADO information:
# Table 8-digit Rado reference number:
From around the mid-1950s, five-digit reference numbers were introduced.
From 1972/73, new eight-digit reference numbers (123.4567.8) were introduced instead of the old reference numbers (12345).
The first three digits (123.xxxx.x) indicate the caliber of the movement:
